Google Workspace Chat (The bot)
If you have Google Workspace (gSuite) for Education you can set up a Chat Bot and get updates using its webhook.
For example, you can configure the ORS to notify oncall personnel on Google Chat when a student reports a problem.
On Google Workspace Chat (The bot)
From the chat space menu:
- Select Manage webhooks.
- A dialog appears that lists any incoming webhooks already defined for the space.
- If this is the space's first webhook, you are prompted to provide a webhook name and avatar URL. If the space already has webhooks, click Add another.
- Fill in the name field and optionally the avatar URL field.
- Click SAVE.
- Copy and save the webhook URL and go to the ORS
